Goldie has a new boss, Jason, at the sex toy company. Suddenly, she gets an invitation to a steamy bdsm club and it’s from him. There was a lack of details and the very rushed feel to the story. Then there’s Goldie who seems like one of those TSTL characters. She follows some note to a place in the middle of nowhere without her cell phone or telling anyone. She didn’t even know Jason, the boss and yet she complied with going out where she could possibly get killed and never be found. Come on! Then she lets this strange guy who could have all sorts of diseases see if she’s wet between the legs! That said, Goldie was very hard to like. After that is just went downhill. A woman named Cat is introduced as well as fingering guy, Jacob. They all seem to converge on Goldie and take control. Did i mention, SHE DOESN”T KNOW THEM. Not a thing and suddenly they’re getting hot and heavy. Made no sense and as such, lost my interest pretty quick. It does perk up, Cat turns out to be a ball squeezing bad ass and eventually we get to know the characters. I still didn’t like Goldie. Her initial introduction was damaging and she never redeemed herself. I’m surprise to say this, as I really like several of Doris O’Connor’s books, but this was a miss.I might recommend it to a few friends who are really into bdsm reads.
